Films

Karakeev founded Digidoc AI Studio in Almaty. Its portfolio includes GOOD BOY, the science-fiction comedy Jackpot, and three episodes of Мёртвый сигнал (Dead Signal). The official 2019 Indie Short Fest listing credits him as director of Bring Me Home, establishing a filmmaking practice before the current generative-video wave.

Why follow this filmmaker

The portfolio returns to survival, vulnerable characters and relationships under pressure. Its range—from a scavenger who discovers the universe’s last tree in Jackpot to a survivor travelling with a dog in GOOD BOY—makes genre a way of testing character choices, not simply a catalogue of visual effects.

Moving between shorts, episodes and a 51-minute film makes Digidoc worth tracking for sustained dramatic development. Runtime alone cannot establish quality; the useful evidence is an identifiable director pursuing multiple completed stories. A personal X account has not yet been verified; the creator-owned site remains the monitoring source.
